Mission of the Month: Operation Christmas Child is a yearly project of Samaritan’s Purse. This ministry is to make opportunities to share the Gospel with children and families and partner with local churches to reach out to their communities. Our church has participated in this ministry since 2003 filling boxes, volunteering, or both.
For prayer …
– for the children receiving boxes
– for our own volunteers as well as the thousands of other local volunteers
– for excellent participation of our members in this project.
